this past weekend i caught myself watching a lot of the old vintage halloween mcdonalds commercials!! i wish i could've collected all of their happy meal halloween pales/buckets
Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!

Oh no you don't.

If she sells it to anyone it would be me...and then I would just mail it back to her kids when they grew up.

Sell it; pshaw.

I've found a treasure trove of vintage Halloween themed ads.

Here's one from 1960

These are from an archive of Life magazines. Some of them are subtle, so you have to look close for the Halloween imagery.
Glad you like them.

That's old pics, and it looks good! 8) So I believe I have old Halloween recipes with pics that my grandpa has it in his closet. I'll see if I can find it. I think it was 1957.
